lyrics

Walking home through the opaque,
Maybe this is what we need,
Or sell our things from a car boot,
You’re at the back and in the lead.

Just a bubble in a blitz-war,
But every painter knows his paints,
I’m barely breaching the grey shore,
It’s neither freedom nor it’s feigned.
​
It’s just a holiday within a holiday,
You’ve been chasing your father too long,
It’s just an hour away, but within another day,
You can check-in your cases while we all carry on.
​
And I don’t know where I’m going,
And I don’t know where I’ve been.
​
Feel it rain when I’m underground,
Ashamed each day is the same,
So I lose sight of why I’m walking,
They say the painter never knows his frame,

It’s just a balcony among a sea of balconies,
We’ll write our postcards at the airport out,
It’s just another dream but within a stranger’s dream,
All I’ll need to get through another drought.
​
And I don’t know where I’m going,
And I don’t know where I’ve been.
